    Doakes got a reaction from Cumbriansaint72 in St Mirren "community "club?   
    It's a great shout, club could also donate free tickets if they are feeling generous. Better than having empty seats and could make someone's weekend to have a free day out to the football

    Is it ? From what I can see the charitable  arm of St Mirren merely copy the initiatives  of the SPL Trust ( because that is  that is where the financing  comes from ).
    With the recent budget and the reduction of £20 a week in universal credit ,  our vulnerable citizens (and us being in the most deprived  area of Paisley) need all the help they can get.
    Could the club not  make a home for the food bank and ask our supporters  to donate not just food but clothes ,toys and cash in the coming  months?

    Does going to the games since 1979 count as supporting your team? I support neither of the OF teams bigotry but I expect a bit of professionalism from our chairman. Having said that if John manages to stay as chairman he’ll have my support. Hopefully he’ll learn a lesson from this and be a bit more savvy in future.

    To be fair, I haven’t seen any sectarian comments from him.
     
    several humorous football comments, but nothing about knees, blood, famine etc.
    The squinty bridge toppling as it is overloaded by a mob of health-threatening lawbreakers resulting in a polluted Clyde is a rather witty quip.  Nothing malignant or sincere/serious in that.
     
    and I am hoping that no comments so far, from SMISA/StMirren, means that the adults are giving this the consideration it needs - they’re Ignoring the feeble whataboutery of outraged bigots.

    Well stuff like this is always going to happen when we have supporters in charge, Plus these posts where before he was chairman. In hindsight he should have deleted Twitter as soon as he got the job as there will always be weirdos that will dig up any dirt on you, to be fair smisa should have vetted also as that’s apparently what they do before they put the vote to us whether we agree with their choice or not… but I suppose what’s done is done, I just don’t see why he should resign over it. It’s banter, there’s zero hatred in any of the tweets and we all know it, they know it too, it’s just pathetic point scoring by that mob.
     
    too much pitchforks out these days of social media.

    The only reason Rangers fans are out to get needham is because two podcasters resigned from their media duties for something similar, they’re making a mountain out a molehill just as Michael Stewart etc did with the 4 lads had a dream song linking it to the famine song, it’s absolute point scoring and bringing us into it shows how desperate they are.
     
    I stand with John Needham, these pricks sing about Bobby sands etc every game, a few times yesterday Infact, yet they are trying to play the morale high ground it’s pathetic. Feck them

    It’s up to him whether he resigns…
    I do think that apologising on Twitter made it worse, open goal for their mutants who will use it to point score for eternity. 
    Other than the bridge tweet none of them were that bad. Didn’t see that one when I searched and I know some were photoshopped so not sure if that was legit? maybe deleted by now
    Should be setting clear social media guidelines for all club employees.

    Only change I'd be looking at would be to counter Ross Callachan, always causes us problems. Hopefully an in form Alan Power will sort him out. Would like to see Flynn get a chance to start at some point

    Bit of a weird one, you'd expect them to play decent football with some of the players they've got - seem more keen to put the boot in than play attractive football 
    In other news, mind when people said losing Alex Jakubiak was the worst thing ever?  doesn't even get a game for Dundee
    Wouldn't take any of their players in our first 11 as it stands
